An asymmetrical co-op game where you play a blind spider and a blow fly who team up to build a revolution in the backyard.
A human is doing a “makeover” and destroying the garden. You’ve got an idea of what to do, but you need different bugs to work together. Explore the garden, aid comrades, eat them, recruit comrades to create unique actions, and repair relationships.
Bugging Humans is a co-op, action-adventure game about solidarity! It’s for partner, friend, & family play (10+).
Currently developing a 2-player digital (PC) game (2.5hrs), 2-4 player boardgame (45mins), and a short animated film.
In the digital game, the blind spider player doesn’t see the screen at all, while the blow fly player does.
The tabletop version is being developed as a boardgame and hybrid boardgame with an app (for blind play).
The game is inspired by lived experience and research into mass action, bugs, ecocide, and the need for us to keep remaking our relations with each other.
